PaedsCalc is a clinical decision support tool. It does not replace clinical judgement. The prescribing doctor remains responsible for every dose, prescription and instruction given to a patient or caregiver.
By installing or using PaedsCalc ("the app") you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the app.
1. Who may use PaedsCalc
The app is intended for registered medical practitioners and other licensed healthcare professionals in Malaysia who prescribe or dispense medicines for children. It is not intended for parents, caregivers or members of the public to calculate doses themselves.
2. Clinical responsibility
- Doses are calculated from weight, age and the reference data built into the app (see Help → References). Always check each dose against the patient's condition, current guidelines, the product label and your own clinical assessment before prescribing.
- The app does not know the patient's full history, renal or hepatic function, interactions, or local formulary and stock. You must consider these yourself.
- Allergy checks only cover the allergy status you enter. A cleared check does not prove a medicine is safe for that patient.
- Caregiver slips must be explained to the caregiver by the prescriber or dispenser.
- If a dose shown by the app looks wrong, do not use it. Please report it (Settings → Report a dose issue).
3. Regulatory status
PaedsCalc has not been registered, approved or certified by the Medical Device Authority (MDA) or any other regulator. It makes no claim to be error-free.
4. Plans, licence codes and payment
- Free features may be used at no cost. Pro and Clinic features need a paid licence code.
- A licence code is issued to one doctor (Pro) or one clinic branch (Clinic) and must not be shared, published or resold. Device limits for each plan are listed in Plans & prices.
- A licence is valid until the expiry date in the code. Renewal needs a new code.
- Refunds: no refund is given once a licence code has been activated.
- We may revoke a code that is shared, resold or obtained by fraud.
5. Acceptable use
Do not copy, reverse-engineer, resell or redistribute the app, its dose data or its licence system, and do not try to bypass licence checks.
6. Availability and changes
The app works offline once installed. We may update dose data, features and these terms. Updates arrive automatically when the app is next opened online. Continued use after an update means you accept the updated terms.
7. Limitation of liability
The app is provided "as is". To the extent permitted by Malaysian law, PaedsCalc and its developer are not liable for any loss, injury or damage arising from use of the app, including reliance on a calculated dose, except where such liability cannot be excluded by law. Where liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to the licence fee you paid in the previous 12 months.
8. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of Malaysia.
